nnnnPressurized container
nnnninspection for liquid
nnnnnitrogen dosed containers
nnnnand carbonated beverage
nnnncontainers.
nnnnPressure Inspection up to 3.1 bar or 45 psi
nnnnThe TapTone 4000-F inspects 100% of containers at production line speeds.
nnnnThe system will detect leaks and low pressure in liquid nitrogen dosed containers and
nnnncarbonated beverage containers. When combined with optional sensors, this system
nnnnwill also perform fill level inspection, cap inspection, and label detection.
nnnnBenefits
nnnn• Rapid on-line inspection: up to 1.52 m/sec
nnnn(300 ft/min) maximum
nnnn• Easy operation & product set-up using
nnnna large color touch screen and icon
nnnndriven menus
nnnn• Combined inspections on a single controller:
nnnnUp to 4 primary inspections (Force, X-ray,
nnnnProximity)
nnnn• Reject and sort with 2 independently
nnnnoperated reject outputs
nnnnMeets CE requirements
nnnn• ULand CUL approved
nnnnApplications
nnnnLN2 dosed teas, juices, and water
nnnn• Over pressure/under pressure in LN2 dosed
nnnnPET containers
nnnn• Retorted dairy drinks in cans
nnnn• Carbonated beer or soft drinks in cans or
nnnnplastic bottles
nnnn• Other low to mid-range pressure
nnnnapplications up to 3.1 bar or 45 psi
nnnnHow It Works-
nnnnForce Technology
nnnnDetects leaks and low pressure in LN2 dosed containers, carbonated
nnnnbeverage containers and aerosol containers. Parallel belts transport the
nnnncontainer past a sensor that measures the tension on the sidewall of
nnnnthe container. This action allows the system to measure the pressure
nnnninside the container. Utilizing DSP technology, the controller analyzes
nnnnthe measurement and assigns a merit value to each container. If the
nnnnmerit value is outside of the acceptable range, a reject signal activates
nnnna remote reject system and the container is removed from the line.
nnnnFill Level Technology
nnnnOptical Technology: The Optical sensor is used to measure fill level of
nnnnwater based products in glass and plastic containers. The sensor utilizes
nnnna special emitter/receiver infrared wavelength tuned to the absorption
nnnnband of water. The beam is powerful enough to pass through most
nnnntypes of plastic and glass containers but will not pass through water
nnnnbased liquids.
nnnnX-ray Technology: The X-ray sensor is used to measure the fill level in
nnnnsteel, aluminum, glass, plastic and paper containers. An x-ray beam is
nnnnfocused in the expected fill level region of the container. As the x-ray
nnnnbeam penetrates the container, it is attenuated by the amount of product
nnnnblocking the beam. The attenuation is proportionate to the fill level of
nnnnthe container.
